If you ever wanted to check out the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca from track level, the time is now. Of course, you'll be pedaling your heart out, not pedaling a Laguna Seca Edition Ford Mustang around the track.

Mazda Raceway's monthly twilight cycling allows riders of all ages to experience the 11-turn, 2.238-mile course safely from the seat of a bicycle. The event is being held just days before the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix MotoGP World Championship on July 25. Several of the competing riders are scheduled to participate in the ride that starts at 5:30 p.m. and runs until 7:30 p.m.

A barbecue will follow the ride from 7:30 p.m. until 8:45 p.m.

The main sponsor of the event is Rabobank of California, and it's hosted by the Bay Area's Webcor/AltoVelo Bicycle Racing Club.

The cost to participate is $10. And if you miss this ride, the next event is scheduled for Aug. 8. Check out www.mazdaraceway.com/twilight-cycling for more details.
